As held by the Supreme Court in the case of Dahanayake vs. De Silva,(supra) that the National State Assembly had the power to pass substantive laws on certain matters in terms of Section 73(e) and (f), in the same way, we hold that in terms of Article 101 ( l)(i) Parliament still has the power to pass laws necessary in respect of disputed elections and such other matters as are necessary or incidental to the election of Members of Parliament.

Further he submitted that when a Member of Parliament is elected his sitting and voting as a Member of Parliament is necessary or incidental to such an election. Therefore in our view, it would be erroneous to think that the framers of the Constitution having stated in no uncertain terms in Article 91(1)(e) that no person shall be qualified to be elected as a Member of Parliament or to sit and vote in
